I think this is why I write-
quote from Vincent van Gogh:
“Art is to console those who are broken by life.” – Vincent Van Gogh
I’ve posted two of my hands down favorite Van Gogh paintings and a clip from Doctor Who that I think was the best moment on DW ever.
In this scene Van Gogh over hears a tour guide give not an academic reason for why he
admires Van Gogh’s work, but a human one. It really is a great tribute.
Vincent van Gogh Almond Blossoms 1890
Vincent van Gogh The Church at Auvers 1890
That scene just breaks my heart and leaves me in tears, no matter how many times I have seen it.
Me too, it breaks my heart but it really was a beautiful scene.
Yes, it is so worth it. It captures so much feeling of so many kinds: shock, joy, tragedy. It is one of my “favorite of all times” episodes.
